they told us they were going to be in pigeon forge and they invited us to come join them say hi guys
hey the campground we've never been to before it's called camp rivers landing and it's right
in pigeon forge tennessee as you can see all the sights on this end back in to the river
right to the river you can buy tubes um in the office for nine dollars a piece and they have
um an air chuck to pump them up or you could bring your own and you carry them down past
the campground there's a hotel and you put them in the water and you tube down and you get out there
are little rapids in there so it gets a little bumpy here there's a couple places where there's
some rapids but um people have been having a great time the whole weekend we've been here
tubing down the river the geese float down the river fly back and hit and float back again
they kind of do what same i think they must have learned from the people in the tubes or i guess
the twos might have learned from the people in the geese i don't know but this is a really really
nice campground we really like this camera it's small but it's really nice
and i think they have we were here for like a raging cajun weekend i think is what the theme was
so included in your um stay saturday night they could eat a boil so it was a huge spread of
sausage crawfish corn on the cob and potatoes they also had beer and hurricanes so it was it
was fun it had live music oh and jambalaya and barbecued spam have you ever had bologna you
ever had barbecue spam it was good it was pretty it was really good so anyway they had live music
and lots of food lots of fun they had more food than they had people because there was leftovers
it was really good um so amenities here that they have at this campground short of the river which
you can also fish in we didn't mention that but there was a fellow down here trout fishing and
gave a trout to our friends down here for breakfast one morning because he only caught
one that wasn't enough for his family so something else you can do they also have
a very nice pool they have a kids zone at the end that has like the mushroom thing with the
water and water squirting all up out of the sidewalk um chairs floats they have your your
air pillow you love your little airplane you have the big jumping pillow and it wasn't too wet here
to jump on it so we jumped on it she didn't drop long no i don't want to break something like me
um they also have a playground that's fenced in they have a dog park at the other end from
where we're staying that's fenced in down by the river they had some cornhole boards out
and they had the checkerboard yeah they have the big checkerboard on the concrete
and i think you messed with the jenga while you were there and they have the big jenga and then
they have like a pavilion that's where the food was but it's open the whole time you're here um
they have picnic tables and stuff set up in there they have a really nice laundry facility
very very very clean yes if you saw our last video we said something about some of the campgrounds
aren't really clean on their laundromats some of the laundromats aren't clean when you go
out somewhere but this place was spotless the laundry area was nice like the washers on the
bottom dryers on the top huge folding area um the little game room in there if you wanted to play
some games they had a drink machine in there for you to drink you don't have to bring any change
it's all done by your card which is nice because i don't know if you guys know but change is getting
harder and harder to find now you can't find quarters so that makes a lot easier for us on the
road if you just swipe your credit card and just do your launch and then also in that same building
it's like i guess their bath house but each stall is like an individual bathroom so
we're starting to see that a couple more places and some of you are so nice and they have like
they also have the fully handicapped um you know shower that you no more football no more
football showers where everybody's all together and we're all in the same little rooms and all
that kind of stuff you have your own room with a bathroom a shower a toilet locks yeah
everything was tile very nice very cool very clean very clean um
they have all their sights are back in they're all they're all 20 30 and 50. full hook up with
i think he said 60 channels of hd tv or they have a lot of cable we don't use cable but they
do have a lot of cable on the internet they have wi-fi yeah they do have wi-fi when we were here
during the week it was fine when it got to the night time and all the kids came out and got on
their tablets and their phones and their computers and slowed it down but that's everywhere we were
able to upload videos so if i can upload a video you can do a lot of you can do pretty good on
work so they actually had pretty decent wi-fi and it's free you don't have to pay for it and so the
sites on this side you can kind of see down here they all have all the sites have fire pits but
the ones on the riverside are gravel parking area they all have these nice metal picnic tables and
the fire pits and of course they have the water um the ones on the opposite side of the park where
we are they don't have water but we don't have the water because i didn't book in town to get a water
site they were all taken um but they back up to the base of the mountain which is quiet because
that means nobody's behind you and those sites have a gravel parking area but a concrete pad
where our picnic table is so that's nice and then there's sites in between because it's a big loop
the sites in between are back-end sites some of them are like ours they're gravel with the
concrete pad and some of them are actual concrete like where you parked as a concrete pad so those
are all really really level there's yeah there's several different options we didn't have a problem
getting leveled here um you are in a mountain so it's not a hundred percent level but we didn't
have any issues getting in we have a 45 foot rig so we didn't have any problem at all getting in
um you do book your site online like you pick your specific site and it tells you how long it is and
everything like that um so that's nice and it's in pigeon forge so there's your tourist trap you've
got everything anything you want to do pigeon forge you're in pigeon forge gatlinburg's not
far away we went up there to the mountains of today yeah we drove up to the mountains
we dropped about 20 degrees from the 90 degrees up to almost 70ish degrees it was getting cooler up
there so whether you want to like hear everything in town is go carts and those little coaster
i don't know what they're called um but it's it's very touristy a lot of restaurants so if you need
restaurants they have plenty of plenty of food yeah and then today like you said we just went
to the mountains so we just drove there's national park not too far away so you can
check out the wildlife if you don't have your own camper there is i think one rv site or rv rental
has some rv rentals here so you can rent the rv it's on site but the big thing we really liked
if you don't have a camper and you have a couple friends or family members that want to come in
you can book the farm house you know lisa's all about the farmhouse because this used to
be an old dairy at one time it used to be a dairy and so the farmhouse i don't remember
i've been looking at it all week was built or established in 1910 maybe 1915 i don't
remember it says over there but um the owner let us take a peek at it today and it's huge
huge yeah i think i counted you could sleep 12 people there it has its own theater room in there
with all kind of couches in there and you can sit there and you can everybody's the theater
you could probably put 12 people in it maybe more maybe it was huge and so there's like two bedrooms
with king size beds another bedroom that's got two full-size beds i think another bedroom that's got
a set of bunk beds and then two more twin beds bathrooms a huge dent there's a little carport
outside and screened and poured carport outside and had a great big grill outside and it has a
has its own fire pit with its own chairs around so you have to bring your chairs so there's no
excuse not to check this place even if you're not camping you want to just come and bring the whole
family and you want to have a weekend or a week there there you have the cabin type of house and
you have an rv so if you don't have your own rv you've got to make and they have themed weekends
like regularly yeah it's not just this weekend this weekend was just the raging cajun weekend um
there's different themes like this week everybody cheat i have the paper here i can tell you we can
probably go through some other like everybody that's checked in this week because it's
next week is the jeep invasion and then the labor day weekend and then they have a all voles weekend
coming up they have pigeon forge right run so like roadkill weekend mexican fiesta weekend
and they're not just necessarily themes for the campground like i think the jeep invasion and the
hot rod thing we've seen a lot so it's not just here but um literally we're not even a block off
the main parkway as they call it it wasn't for the bugs you could tell how quiet um so we're
right here convenient to everything but we're in our camper so they also i forgot to mention at the
pool they have a food truck trailer it's called dazzle delights i saw kids this weekend with like
chicken and fries and um ice cream and stuff like that so on the weekends that's parked right by the
pool so if you're ever in the pigeon forge area i guess it looks like they're open year round pretty
much they're open year round year round so if you're in the pigeon forge area you need to come
check out camp rivers landing you won't be disappointed we really really really liked
it here if you come here you've seen our video let them know that you saw this video
and it is a family it's a family establishment it's a family run but those are the ones we love
the most the celibate owns it um it's been in his family i believe he said his grandfather
bought the farm you know back when it was a dairy farm and then they over the course of the years
turned into a campground but he's doing a great job we've had a great weekend visiting friends
